I am poised to get another Farad for the ER. How would you describe the differences  to the stock supply? And which voltage did you go with? I can’t decide between the 7v or 9v.

 

Any reason why you don’t mention 12v as a third option?

Earlier this week I have upgraded the standard SMPS of the ER to a 7v Farad Super3 with standard DC cable. Quite a nice improvement. A blacker and more defined sound and better bass. not as big a step as the ER itself of course.
 

Anyone with experience on upgrading the DC cable of the Farad?

I am using a 7V Farad on the ER.

 

I made a cable using V-Quad Cu21 wire from VH Audio (https://www.vhaudio.com/v-quad.html), Oyaide connector, WBT solder. It did improve everything by a notch - quieter and calmer. Chris at VH is great to deal with as well.

 

Thanks for your feedback. Based on the advice from others, I decided to go with the Audio Sensibility Signature Silver cable a couple of weeks ago. This gave me a nice uptick in SQ compared to the standard Farad DC cable.
